Chickens and Lambs and Emus, OH MY!

Our friends Kari and Dean invited us out to their farm so Bennett could see all their animals, check out this video of Bennett when he first saw an emu...

How lucky for us, we got to meet this little lamb who was only one day old! She was calling out for her mama and Bennett was concerned about why the little lamb was sad... he cares so much about others' emotions... hmm, wonder where he gets that from?!!

Little lamb back in her happy place, right by her mama :)

This was how Bennett was the whole time we were there... on high alert as to the whereabouts of the three emus!!! He was so nervous about them! Their names were Emily, Elizabeth, and Ernie.

He loved the puppies and chickens too. It was a great visit on a beautiful spring evening!

About Me

I love God, my husband, my sons, my family, my friends. I try to find balance in an unbalanced world. I love living in Washington but am a Wisconsin Girl at heart. I love being an RN in Long Term Care. I am thankful EVERY day for my parents and the support they have given me on my 31 year journey thus far. I love a hot bath and a clean house. I think Erik and I will have more kids, and maybe adopt, but it is not up to us in the grand scheme. I love skiing, snowboarding, rollerblading, yoga, golf. I hate conflict and I love listening. I strive to live by the virtues of Discernment, Innocence, Authenticity, Modesty, Reverence, Contentment, and Generosity. I love the Green Bay Packers and Fantasy Football. I love how my baby sisters have developed into gorgeous women and are in love! I hate olives, running late, and wearing make-up. I love following Dave Ramsey's plan to "Live like no one else so we can Live and Give like no one else". My soft spot is for animals. I love the saying "Life is lived between the cup of coffee and the glass of wine"... and in my case, I prefer the coffee STRONG, and the wine RED! (Oh and did I mention, I love my husband?!)
